Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 767: Where to Stay
Chapter 767: Chapter 767: Where to Stay
After Lu Hao and his group entered the city, they were swiftly brought by Liang Jiuqing to the Heart Talk Branch.
“Did something happen at the store?”
Lu Hao asked, frowning.
“It’s not your store where something happened, it’s next to your store. Aunt Lin and the others are there too, ah, I can’t explain it all at once, just come with me quickly!”
Liang Jiuqing, as if seeing a savior, grabbed a group of people and started running forward, saying that person was too formidable, even Xing Taining and his crew couldn’t suppress him.
“No way, someone dares to cause trouble inside the base?”
Although Nie Qing asked urgently, his tone was full of excitement, looking forward to the unfolding drama.
Yifan, already exhausted, immediately rolled up his sleeves and stood up: “Causing trouble next to our store is unacceptable too! We must teach him a lesson!”
“Exactly! I want to see who dares,”
Lin Xiuyuan also followed fiercely.
However, when Lu Hao and the others clearly saw who the person surrounded in the middle was, they were also stunned.
Many Guard Squad Members and Security team members were down, leaving only the brothers Xing Taian and Xing Taining still holding on, though it looked like they wouldn’t last much longer.
“Him? He came so quickly?”
Lin Xiuyuan didn’t expect the troublemaker to be Kou Ning, but why was he fighting with the base’s Security team?
“Xiao Hao! You guys are back!”
Mao Zhihang ran over.
“What exactly is going on here?”
Lu Hao asked.
So, Mao Zhihang briefly told everyone about the events of the afternoon.
In short, Kou Ning wanted to live next to the Heart Talk Branch, but the base regulations didn’t allow it, Ye Rongxin was about to take him back to the Security team when Kou Ning, in a fit of anger, injured several members of the Security team, and later the two Xing brothers also brought their Guard Squad, which led to the current situation.
“Just injured?”
Lu Hao was somewhat surprised, thinking about Kou Ning’s personality, if this were at F city base, wouldn’t there already be rivers of blood?
“Yes, just injured, but… he made it look really easy,”
Mao Zhihang said.
“It shows,”
If Kou Ning really meant business, none of the Guard Squad or Security team members present could stand a chance against him, and right now, he was leisurely leaning against a metal door, seemingly very dismissive of the hundreds of people in front of him.
“I’ve already said, I just want to live next to the Heart Talk Store, why are you so annoying? Be careful, or I might kill you,”
Kou Ning said impatiently.
“The base has a unified residential area, you can very well live there, no one is allowed to build residences here on their own,”
Ye Rongxin said, his several holstered guns already twisted into pretzel shapes by Kou Ning.
“No way, no way, I need to shop, I eat a lot,”
Kou Ning shook his head.
Lu Hao stopped Yifan who wanted to rush forward and walked up, saying, “Hello, I’m Lu Hao from the Heart Talk Team.”
Heart Talk Team?
Kou Ning squinted his eyes sizing up the man in front of him who seemed commanding; was this store also his?
“You don’t have to live here to buy what you want,”
Lu Hao said.
“You know what I want?”
Kou Ning straightened up and couldn’t help but think, if he were still with the Han Family, this man would likely be his rival.
“Mutant animal meat, we can supply it to you in unlimited quantities,”
Lu Hao walked up to Kou Ning and whispered to him.
“Really?”
Kou Ning dropped his defensive stance; just as Lu Hao was approaching him, he distinctly felt the man’s unconcealed strong aura.
This man, he is incredibly strong!
However, after hearing what the man said, he immediately countered.
Who cares how strong he is, the unlimited supply of meat is the key point!
“Really, you don’t need to worry about selling out, or after you’ve paid the Crystal Core, we can also provide a delivery service,”
Lu Hao said.
Ye Rongxin and the brothers Xing Taining only watched as Lu Hao walked up to the man, spoke a few words beside him, and then the man stretched his hand back and waved, making the metal room completely disappear.
Gasps of astonishment came from the crowd, “Such ease of control with the Metal Element Ability!”
“Let’s go, I will stay at the place you mentioned, I believe in your word,”
Kou Ning said as he picked up a few dirty backpacks beside him.
“Cough cough, respected guest, renting a room at the base does require payment in Crystal Core, you just…”
Mao Zhihang remembered that Kou Ning had just emptied all the Crystal Cores from his pockets, exchanging them all for braised meat.
“Captain Ye, I remember there are quite a few empty rooms in the Security team, why not let him stay there temporarily for a few days?”
Lu Hao, coming up with a plan, approached Ye Rongxin and suggested.
“Do you… know him?”
Ye Rongxin asked quietly, sensing that Lu Hao seemed to place great importance on this man, and he had been comforting him the whole time.
Lu Hao shook his head slightly, “Just heard of him, I’ll explain in detail later.”
It remained to be seen what kind of person Kou Ning was, and wasn’t staying in the Security team the most suitable option?
“Understood, we indeed have a few unused vacant rooms in our compound,”
Ye Rongxin realized, realizing that living in the Security team and being confined there wasn’t much different.
“Kou Ning,”
Seeing Kou Ning happily following them but still feeling uneasy, Lu Hao called out to him.
“What?” Kou Ning turned around.
“Don’t cause any more trouble, or you’ll be driven out of the base,”
Lu Hao said subtly.
“If no one offends me, I will not offend anyone,”
Kou Ning smiled and followed Ye Rongxin inside.
“He’s truly impressive, Lu Hao. He dealt with it immediately,”
Liang Jiuqing also heaved a sigh of relief, praising Lu Hao before he hurried over to Xing Taining’s side.
“Lu Hao, that man was formidable,”
Xing Taining pointed to the several places where his clothing had already torn, chuckling bitterly.
The Metal Element Ability User controlled his abilities very precisely. Each attack only cut through a single layer of his clothing, and he believed that if the man hadn’t intentionally avoided drawing blood, he would have been a bloody mess by now.
“He is indeed formidable. So, when dealing with powerful people, if you can win with intelligence, do so,”
Lu Hao nodded in response.
Mao Zhihang and Lin Tianzhen also relaxed, they truly feared that the incident involving the Heart Talk Store might cause a big scene at the base, and fortunately, that man hadn’t used his full strength.
After the crowd gradually dispersed, Lu Hao and his group also prepared to return to the villa.
“Did you know him before you went out?”
Guo Yang asked, feeling just now as though everyone seemed to know that man.
“We don’t know him, but we have heard of him, people say he’s very powerful,”
Lin Xiuyuan immediately answered.
“I’m so tired, finally almost home,”
Yin Chengtian followed behind and said listlessly, killing zombies was truly exhausting. It was much more tiring than selling items at the base, but although today was exhausting, Captain Lu had taught them many combat methods and experiences, and they all felt greatly benefited.
“Hang in there, we continue tomorrow,”
Lu Hao patted Yin Chengtian. Over the next few months, he would continue to significantly enhance the overall strength of every member of the team.
